I’m living a life of exhaustion. It feels like any amount of energy is being sucked outside to fuel the frozen wasteland that is this city in winter. I’ll not last much longer. Winter, when will you end?!

And it’s very unfortunate for my children that they happened to be born in the worst season for birthdays. I tried my best this year and it came out ok. As it turns out ‘Apple’ is a totally cute birthday theme though I think it could be better executed in the fall. AH WELL. Anyway, I got a few pictures of Finn for his birthday and they went a little better than Al’s did.

We tried to go out and do pictures a second day but everyone was cold and sad. This is the picture that sums up that entire trip out.

The third trip out went a lot better.

I told Al to strike a Batman pose. Apparently Batman is chill as heck.

At this point I’m basically counting down the days until winter is at its end and we can go back outside and play. Being trapped inside is basically the worst and I’m ready to be done with it, same with the kids.

But whatever. I’m hoping to start getting out a little more and doing more pictures of some of the stuff I’ve been crocheting. It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten a nice walk in with the camera, and it would be nice to start getting better pictures of the things I’ve been working on.

Anyway, let’s not pretend there’s going to be an update next week. We all know I’m a liar.
